In This Comic About Anxiety, Perseverance Is a Home Run

Setting small, achievable goals that require you to face your anxieties is a good start, and achieving them can make a serious difference. It can even help you start to overcome anxieties that feel impossible to get past.

This comic by Shivana Sookdeo is a great illustration of that challenge. Originally published in the first Sweaty Palms Anthology, it shows how hard facing those anxieties can be, particularly when they come with a panic disorder. It also shows how sometimes, perseverance can be enough.
